Barry Domvile: Difference between revisions

(fixed link lolol)
Line 52:
Coming back to England, Domvile began to support German interests in England. First he joined the council of the Anglo-German Fellowship and then founded an Anglo-German organization called the Link. In 1939, he backed St John Philby of the British People's Party. The same year he spoke to the Right Club about the need for England to have "a bloody revolution".
 
Domvile’s support of Germany would land him in an intermentinternment camp in 1940. During his time of interment, he wrote his autobiography ''From Admiral to Cabin Boy.'' He would be freed from Intermentinternment after German forces took control of England during Operation Sea Lion.
 
=== Post Sea Lion ===
Despite his advocacy for Propro-German causes, Domvile was initially not given a high post in the new British government due his lack of direct government experience. He would be recognized by later British administrations, though, causing him to rise in the British Government, where he would soon develop good relationships with the various faction leaders of the British People's Party .
 
These relations would benefit Domvile greatly when Prime Minister Chesterton resigned after the Uprising of '56. As Domvile was the highest ranked minister that none of the party faction leaders had any issues with, he was easily selected as the new British Prime Minister.
